Nudge, the very first Lefever I bought is a 12 ga. FE that weighs only 6lbs. 3oz. on an accurate scale. I also have a 12 ga. I grade which is only a couple ounces heavier. But most 12 ga. Lefever guns I've weighed have ranged between 7 and 8 lbs.

About a year ago, I made a post here that detailed a bunch of weights and frame dimensions of a number of different Lefevers across a broad range of serial numbers. Here's a link to that thread concerning Lefever frame sizes:

The small frame 12 gauge guns are a delight if you can find one, but I've only ran across a very few. I still haven't seen a 12 ga. Lefever that has the xx stamp on the frame as found on 20 and 16 ga. guns, but some people claim they exist.


A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.
